Volume 3 Tomb Raider Chapter 38 The Black Box

The flame on the torch has now changed from purple and black to bright yellow!

I walked over to the torch and took a closer look, but I didn't find anything special!

But to say that they are just ordinary torches, I wouldn't believe it!

I thought about what had just happened, and then I bit my middle finger and dripped another drop of blood on the torch, but this time the torch didn't react again!

When I turned my head to try a different torch, Charik suddenly said, "There seems to be a black box somewhere!"

I followed Charik's point and looked down, and found that in the place where Wang Changsheng had turned into a pile of dust, there was a small black box in the center of the dust!

Joan of Arc was closer, so she walked over and gently picked the black box open!

Whoa!

The black box slid across the ground for a while but it wasn't opened!

Joan of Arc bent down and carefully picked up the box, looked at it and said, "This should be a sage relic, it needs a special person to open it!" If you force it open, you will only destroy the contents inside! ”

Hearing this, I asked curiously, "What is the Sage Relic?" Is it the same as a reliquary? ”

Joan of Arc explained: "The relics of the saints and the relics are two different things, the relics are the weapons used by the saints during his lifetime and carry the power of the saints from generation to generation after channeling, and the relics of the saints are the things left by the saints before they die, this thing may be a suicide note, it may be a treasure, or it may be an ordinary item that he attached great importance to during his lifetime!"

I looked at Joan of Arc's unsmiling face and asked, "Are you the Joan of Arc?"

A smile finally appeared on her ancient face.

"I am Joan of Arc who was tried and burned at the age of eighteen! Just now, after seeing the light, she used the only remaining power in her body to activate an energy crystal to summon me! Now her soul is very weak, so she is resting, so I will take her place for you for the time being! ”

I was silent for a while and said, "She summoned you, and there are certain side effects!"

Joan of Arc asked, "Why did you suddenly remember to ask this question?"

"After I got to know her, she gritted her teeth to fight no matter how difficult the moment, and she summoned you a total of three times, all to save me in the most dangerous time! So I wanted to know if there were any side effects on her! ”

Joan of Arc smiled and said, "Maybe it doesn't hurt to tell you!"

"Please!"

"This girl inherited my holy relics and some of my spiritual power, but she did not inherit the powerful power carried by my soul!"

"On the one hand, it's because her soul is still too weak, and if she forcibly inherits it, she can only assimilate into another self, so that she will be defined as death in a sense!"

"And the other reason is that she doesn't want to inherit herself, there are many reasons, but the main reason is that she still has many worldly wishes that have not been fulfilled, so she can't inherit my power, because once she inherits my power, then she will immediately become the new Pope of the Sun Court! At that time, she will no longer be Joan of Arc, but a pope who has given up all the emotions of the world, the Pope of the Divine Court of the Sunshine! ”

"That's why she's trying her best to avoid summoning me, because once she summons me once, then her body and soul will merge with me once, thus speeding up the inheritance of the immense power contained in my soul!"

"Can you understand that?"

I nodded thoughtfully and asked, "How long will it take for her to inherit your soul energy?"

"Half a year at most! You're running out of time! Cherish it! ”

At this time, the mountain that Zhang Huairen left behind before I left pressed again!

"As far as I know, Joan of Arc is the current saint of the Nikko Court, and after her nineteenth birthday, she will most likely ascend the throne as the new pope of the Daylight Court, and then she will definitely return to France, and you should be separated!"

Is Joan of Arc leaving? If we become pope, will we be able to meet again? Can I still eat the dumplings wrapped in Joan of Arc every Chinese New Year......

Thousands of thoughts attached to my chest make me breathless!

However, just when my mind was occupied by all kinds of thoughts, I slapped myself hard with my hand!

"Don't think about it! has the ability to make Joan of Arc never make a move again, or directly pick that bullshit Sunlight Divine Court for a short time! ”

I said this to myself in my own heart! No one knows! And I didn't realize that when I was thinking about it, I would have the terrible idea of destroying a religious organization directly!

I shook my head and got the nonsense out of my head, and then said to Charik, "Come here, little one, I'll carry you on my back, let's get out of here first!"

However, Joan of Arc, who was still looking at the box, said: "Don't worry, if my guess is correct, this box should be for you!" ”

"For me?"

"Hmmm! Come and have a look! ”

I walked over to Joan of Arc and took the box and looked at it

The box is not big, about 40 centimeters in length, about 20 centimeters in width, and only about 15 centimeters in height, the lid of the box and the box body are connected by hinges, there is no lock on the box, and there is no place to open the box!

Although the pattern on the box is very exquisite, but that's all, after all, it is just a box that can only be taken out to see, and it should not be very useful for us.

However, the moment my bloody finger touched the box, the box suddenly emitted a burst of black light!

The black light is not dazzling, but it makes people's eyes dark! Fortunately, the light was fleeting, and the moment the light disappeared, the box that had no gaps had already opened by itself!

Joan of Arc smiled and said, "It's yours!" I didn't expect you to be superb, but your luck was really good! ”

I smiled at her and didn't speak, this Joan of Arc is still not very easy to get used to!

The box was opened, and inside lay two books and a letter lying quietly!

I glanced at the books and saw that they were all words I couldn't read, and then threw them into the space bag I had brought with me.

I opened the letter, and I thought in my confidence that if it was still that kind of text, I would forcibly call Ye Feng up and ask him to translate it for me first!

However, I didn't call Ye Feng up after all, because although the words in front of me were very complicated and obscure, with my current level of research on ancient texts, it was no problem to understand them!
